Strong triple-play net subscriber growth leading to 1,109,000 triple-play subscribers at March 31, 2016 (+6% yoy), driven by continued traction for our leading "Whop" and "Whoppa" bundles and attractive promotions;

Adjusted EBITDA(3) of 262.1 million, +2% yoy on a rebased basis, as a positive contribution from our connectivity business and continued focus on cost excellence were partially offset by 7.0 million higher sales and marketing expenses due to timing variances in some of our campaigns and 3.4 million costs related to the BASE integration. Excluding these integration costs, rebased growth in our Adjusted EBITDA would have been higher;

Accrued capital expenditures(4) of 188.4 million, reflecting (i) the recognition of the Belgian football broadcasting rights for the 2016-2017 season, (ii) the extension of the exclusive UK Premier League broadcasting rights for the next three seasons, (iii) higher network-related investments as part of our 1 GHz HFC upgrade project, and (iv) the effects of the BASE acquisition.

Free Cash Flow(5) of (69.1) million compared to 24.6 million in Q1 2015, negatively impacted by a nonrecurring 23.5 million cash outflow following a favorable contract renegotiation and the payment of 18.7 million ticking fees linked to the BASE acquisition.

Net loss of 8.6 million in Q1 2016 impacted by a 59.3 million loss on derivative financial instruments;

Plan to accelerate investments in BASE's mobile network, including site upgrades/extensions and increased fiber backhaul. Our ambition will lead to total integration costs of 300.0 million as compared to 240.0 million previously estimated, of which 250.0 million will be earmarked for network-related investments. As a result, we now target annual run-rate synergies of 220.0 million by 2020, as compared to 150.0 million previously estimated, with around 70% driven by MVNO-related synergies;

For 2016, we anticipate rebased revenue growth of up to 2% with solid growth in our fixed connectivity and B2B businesses partially offset by the impacts of increased competition, adverse regulatory impacts from amongst other items cable wholesale and declines in roaming rates,and lower mobile-only revenue. Rebased Adjusted EBITDA to remain stable in 2016 as compared to 2015, impacted by BASE integration costs and the aforementioned adverse regulatory impacts. As a result of investments in both our fixed and mobile infrastructures, our accrued capital expenditures, excluding the recognition of football broadcasting rights, are expected to represent around 23% of revenue with Free Cash Flow between 175.0 and 200.0 million;

The execution of our 2020 Vision, including the synergies related to the BASE acquisition, will enable us to secure profitable growth, targeting a 5-7% Adjusted EBITDA CAGR over the 2015-2018 period.
